The Southern Africa Institute of Fundraising (SAIF) is a professional association of individuals who are responsible for generating resources that will advance sustainability of good causes and various nonprofit organisations. The Institute aims to promote and encourage high standards of ethics, practice and public service and has encouraged growth and professionalism of individual fundraisers and social entrepreneurs for more than two decades.

To further support these efforts, SAIF hosts a fundraising and resource mobilisation Convention biennially, and invites leading national and international fundraising professionals to share their wealth of knowledge with attendees.

Here are some comments from the 2011 Convention:

“Excellent range of speakers and presenters; variety of topics was good; presentation styles were varied and interesting. All in all, a most worthwhile conference”

“It was excellent value for money! Cannot wait for the next one!”

“Bernard and Alan are a MUST at your next convention”

The 11th Biennial Convention promises to be our best yet! We are bringing together 14 top South African and 8 International speakers for 4 days in Cape Town and favourites from the 2011 Convention.

On 8 October 2013, we have an array of Master Class tracks presented by our expert speakers:
• “Your Fundraising is good but could be great” Bernard Ross (UK);
• “Brand clarity and consistency: essence of success” by Stephen Pidgeon (UK);
• “A Starter guide to major Donor Fundraising” Guy Mallabone (Canada):
• “The Basics of Fundraising for New-comers to the Profession” by Di Milford (SA) & Alan Hutson (USA).
As we celebrate 25 years of SAIF’s existence, we find this year’s Convention theme ‘25 Years of Fundraising Excellence’ quite fitting.
